Pretty much what @United857 said. I had a successful career, but I'm far of an outliner. I did have luck to be at the right place, at the right time.

My day to day work is around planning, coding, and system design.

US tech industry has been staggeringly right place/time for the last decade. As a proxy, the NASDAQ has roughly increased 6x in that timeframe.
